I don't think I ever said that. I said he never said that he committed
war crimes. There is a huge difference, because the word atrocities
covers a lot of things that are not war crimes, doubly so when it is being
used in common language and not in a legal sense.

Mostly, those atrocities that Kerry lied about (or committed) were/are
unacceptable acts, or Kerry told unacceptable lies. Frankly, Kerry's
admission appears to have been partially coached by a lawyer, and
it was good for Kerry to avoid a legally direct admission.

Choosing between someone who might have (legally) avoided some
service vs. someone who were disposed to commit atrocities (and
either admitted to them, or lied about them), those making choices
based upon bragging about military service will have to avoid
the liar/those who committed atrocities. Any kind of claim that
Bush might not have committed an atrocity because he didnt'
have an opportunity is alot like any other kind of criminal situation...
---------------
Bush committed the crime of desertion for MONTHS, but he has never
had enough people who know that want to prosecute him for it. This
is because Republicans are basically dishonest thieves, as ALL
Rightists are, because they believe that SOME people deserve to
own the lives and rightful property of others they thereby enslave,
despite doing little or no productive work. Republican Rightists
promote Feudalism.


There are some of us who wouldn't voluntarily/knowingly commit an
atrocity -- whether or not we were placed into the situation.
-------------------
The Zimbardo study at Stanford proves that even without the threat
of summary execution, mere peer-pressure and authority pressure is
enough to break the typical "will" about such things IMMEDIATELY!


Someone,
like Kerry, who is in command of a group of men should have enough
self control and discipline to avoid participating in atrocities.
--------------------------------
He regarded the entire Vietnam WAR as an atrocity, but only in
retrospect, he believed in it and volunteered for it initially,
till he discovered the Dirty Truth about it, that it was a shill
for US corporations to try to gain a slave colony in SE Asia and
offshore oil rights off Vietnam, which are very rich and still
unexploited!.


Again, it is most likely that Kerry had told lies about the atrocities.
------------------
No, it is far more likely that you're a shit-fucking liar shading
the truth with your lies.


Too many of his various claims over the last few years were also
somewhat dishonest. Kerry seems to have a pattern of telling
casual lies.

John
--------------
You're a twisting liar.

In Vietnam, soldiers were regularly threatened with summary field
execution if they did not commit atrocities that would have been
regarded as war crimes had they been selected for judge advocate
review and courts martial. That was one of the facts that led to
the demise of the US in Vietnam, and recognized criminality before
the majority of the American People at that time for any president
that kept that fiasco going. In 1969 US women were 69% pro-war, in
1971 they were 69% against the war! No US war has ever proceeded
to victory once the women turned against it. This and MORE IS what
Kerry said back then, and what he meant!!

Yes, I heard it also... He said (paraphrased), that some attrocities

There were a couple of cases where Kerry had either admitted or strongly
implied his complicity in war crimes. It is proven that Kerry is either
an admitted war criminal or a liar about very important issues.

I suggest that anyone who thinks there is a shred of truth to Dyson's
claim go read the transcript. You will find that Dyson is the proven
liar.

(Note that this isn't the only example of Kerry's claims. Too often,
people select the most benign -- and also select only his horrid
testimony in front of (after) legislative group, but also he has made his
claims about being a war criminal in other contexts. There would
be SOME excuse if he only said it once, but he has made the war
criminal claim in several contexts.)

Remember, Kerry had made other similar comments in testimony (remember that?)
and also in other public statements. The claims have obviously been
legally coached, but have been consistent enough to prove that Kerry
is either a war criminal or a liar (probably both.)


(This is from a post by Tom Seim -- I saw this also on
Meet the Press on Sunday) Too bad that the pro-Kerry people are

Note that this quote is one of several Kerry-isms with similar wording. Note

For those telling lies, refer to people like Ken Smith who claim that
Kerry said nothing like what I claim. This proves that Kerry has indeed
made claims quite similar to what I claim, and in fact his crafting
shows that he knew exactly that he was trying to damage the US military
and his friends in the military. (Or perhaps, Kerry was just admitting
that he really was a two bit war criminal, perhaps even truly a traitor?)

Actually, you have it confused. It is the legislature (most specifically,

the Senate more represents the states, and the President is supposed to
be the head of state and to be essentially the President/CEO of the

It is very inaccurate to make the claim that the purpose of the 'head of

It is not their job to

The sad thing is that Kerry being an admitted war criminal
(or liar who bears horrendous false testimony against his peers)
is perfectly clear to be seen. The network news broadcasts
have shown Kerry's claims in different forms (not just one time.)

Kerry's admissions have obviously been carefully crafted
(playing games with the word atrocity vs. war crime, probably
to keep him from a trial, since "atrocity" is less likely to
put him into prison, where he actually belongs), but it is quite
clear that anyone with a liberal, open mind will see John Kerry
as the perpetrator of war crimes that he really is. In
todays parlance, he'd be effectively guilty of 'hate crimes',
but in a wartime situation. Destroying a peasants' hut is
a pretty despicable action, especially for a future president
of the USA. I'd much rather have a Canada draft dodger/evader
than a murderer of poor peasants or destroyers of their little huts
for president.

Kerry is obviously a bad man, a very very bad man with a
very lackluster Senate record. It would be good for Kerry,
the war criminal (and likely destroyer of very poor peoples huts),
to keep on trying to improve his Senate record.

Since he said "thousands of other soldiers", we know that he means

of this question from this video, we must refer to other information
to see what specific actions he means. It is obvious that he is
refering to actions he regrets and that they are common actions. It
is also clear that he does not mean war crimes.

No,Kerry claimed that all Us soldiers were war criminals.

When?

Actually, Kerry claimed that many were war criminals (or those who
commit atrocities.) Most likely, Kerry was actually generalizing from
his own command (Kerry was commanding the boat, and was likely trying
to diffuse his own criminal behavior.) Kerry really appears to be someone
who is over compensating with remorse from his own criminal behavior.

It would likely be better to have a disserter to Canada instead of
a murderer or someone who destroyed many very poor families huts.

You're are not very high up on the evolutionary ladder apparently. What
Kerry considered an atrocity after the war was considered standard
military action during the war.

John Kerry, being a commander, was obviously assisting in committing and
ordering atrocities. He admitted to complicity.

Whether or not anyone else is a combat veteran doesn't change the fact
that John Kerry has effectively claimed being a war criminal (his words
sanitized for legal reasons, obviously.) Voting for a war criminal would
be ethically and morally MUCH WORSE than voting for an AWOL or draft
dodger who went to Canada. The idea of someone who knowingly PERSONALLY
destroyed a familys means of earning a living, or killing numerous family
members because of (orders) being president of the USA IN THESE MODERN
TIMES is disgusting.

We don't need to let that war criminal, Kerry, become president. Murdering
for absolutely no reason, in the heat of war, and destroying very poor
peoples little huts is heinous. Kerry has shown other abhorrent attitudes
and behaviors.

John Kerry is obviously a bad, bad man. He might even be a very evil
man, but that isn't any persons' place to judge, but it appears to be true.

Morally, someone who has committed atrocities is MUCH MUCH worse

proof that GWB did anything wrong. There are multiple admissions
and plausible facts on the ground that Kerry had ordered and commmitted
atrocities. (One of the original witnesses against GWB had alzheimers,
was coached, and eventually found that the information wasn't reliable.)

It seems like Bush probably did (but maybe not) what he was supposed to
have done, and the need for his area of expertise had died out at the
end of the war... Even if Bush was lazy, and didnt' follow through, he
certainly didn't commit attrocities like the war criminal John Kerry did.

This is definitely a lesser of two evils, and there is definite EVIL on
the Kerry side, where the worst is laziness on the Bush side.

Hi everyone,

I hope someone can help me with this. My daughter is doing a
school project in which she will make a diagram of an atom
using LED's stuck through a foam board, and power the LED's
with 9-volt batteries. I'm an electronic no-nothing, and have
some very simple questions.

First some description of the project: it's a foam board from
Wal-Mart (basically two pieces of poster board with 1/4" of
lightweight plastic foam in the middle). She will have a
cluster of diodes in the middle to serve as the nucleus of the
atom, surrounded by other diodes representing electrons. She
plans to stick the wire leads of the diodes directly into the
foam board from the front and make all the connections in the
back. There will be three separate circuits so that protons,
neutrons, and electrons can each be lit up separately. Each
circuit will have its own rocker switch on the front and will
be powered by a 9v battery. We have some 270 ohm resistors
and figure on using two in series in each circuit.

My questions are:

1) Will sticking the bare wire diode leads through the foam
board create any kind of fire hazard? I'm concerned about
bare wire on paper, but have no idea whether a 9v battery will
generate enough heat to create a problem.

2) The diodes are rated 3v, 20 mA, and she plans to hook up
as many as 22 diodes in series in one of the circuits. Will
one 9v battery do it, or will she need 1 battery for every
three diodes in series?

3) Can she get away with twisting and taping the leads and
wires, or is this something that really should be soldered to
get a reliable connection?

4) Is there anything else I should be asking but am not?

Any help is appreciated. I'm trying to avoid having us spend
many hours constructing this thing only to find out it will
never work.

Thanks!
She will need a quantum noise generator for the led and a dimensional
transporters so that the LED can jump from energy state to state.If it is
observed then the electron (LED) will change state.Quite difficult.The
electrons in an atom do not rotate like planets around the sun.

Yes, and the entire world is stupid. But I pray that Bush wins. I have
this great design in mind of a swastika and stripes flag, and I hope to
make a million bucks selling this new U.S.A. flag. I really hopes he wins,
otherwise I'm stuck with the merchandise.

Maybe your on to something after all.
What you call a "swastika" is the American Indian symbol denoting the
rotation
of the stared in the heavens, the passage of time. It would be truly an
American symbol and get ride of the bias created when people can not
separate
an ancient honorable symbol from a political extremist who abused it.

The Elephant and Donkey, and the swastika need to returned to symbols
worthy of
respect!

In case you'd care to surprise the living fuck out of all of us and
check a fact, you'd find that the Hitler Nazi swastika was the mirror-
image of the Native American symbol.

He was trying to be unique. So? Maybe he wanted time to go backwards. But
only you would notice!
